Note di degustazione
The 2015 Puligny-Montrachet Champgain has a far more austere, crushed stone, mineral driven bouquet compared to Dominique Lafon's Champ Gain, with just a hint of linseed oil developing with time. The palate is rounded and plump, the tropical influence far more expressive in the mouth than on the nose. The finish is fat and rather lugubrious compared to its peers, yet out of three Champ Gains tasted in this flight, it is the one that improved in the glass and developed a riveting sense of spiciness. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.

The 2015 Puligny Montrachet Champ Gain offers a fresher, more focused style compared to the Chassagne Montrachet. White flowers, white peach, crushed rocks, salty minerality, and a hint of citrus all emerge from this pretty, elegant, vibrant beauty that has a backward, tight feel. It’s going to be better with a year or three of bottle age and keep for a decade.
Bright, light yellow. Ripe yellow peach and herbs along with a cooler menthol note on the nose. Fat and slightly spicy on the palate, offering good breadth to its stone fruit flavors. This, too, is freshened by a good quantity of CO2 but is essentially a plump wine. A step up in concentration and depth from the Chassagne-Montrachet Clos Saint-Jean, with a bit more salinity and energy coming through today. And more tactile on the back end.
